Commentary:
Dont get intimidated by the frittata! It is worth it! You can really add whatever leftovers you have from the week in this dish. Frittatas are the casseroles of breakfast time. The key to the amount of eggs to use is the size of your skillet and the ammount of filling. If you want to use less eggs load up your frittata with more veggies. Grate a potato or squash to make each bite more filling and for a cruch add slightly over cooked hashbrowns rightbefore you put it in the oven. I hope you guys find a love for breakfast after your first frittata experience! Let me know if you have any questions and how your frittata turns out.
